Jim Sorenson has update his blog, the Disciples of Boltax with another behind the scenes look at the soon to be released AllSpark Almanac II.

How time sneaks up on us! The AllSpark Almanac II is a mere twelve days away, and betwix now and then there is the juggernaut that is BotCon! So, without further ado, let's start with some previews for the upcoming Almanac.

I figured I'd start in an unusual direction; last year, the first preview images were tiny little snippets and sketches, designed to tease without giving too much away. This year, that'd be less effective; you all know approximately what the book will look like. Instead, how about some images that WON'T be in the book? Ideas and characters that we considered using but rejected for whatever reason: time, space, a better idea, etc.

Remember that if you if you can get to Birmingham England in August, that Transformers Animated lead designer Derrick Wyatt will be attending Auto Assembly 2010, so you can bring along your copy of The Allspark Almanac II and get it signed.

­The Cybertron Philippines have posted images on their message board of another "Transformers 2010" double pack budded the Sons of Cybetron.  This pack contains a clear Optimus Prime and clear Rodimus figures but its not the Transformers Animated toys that have previously been seen, but instead is clear versions of the Transformers Classics molds.  The toys are part of the Transformers Autobot Alliance Toy Launch.  Visit the Cybertron Philippines message board to view all of the images and use the four thumbnails below for some samples.

Jim Sorenson has updated his blog Disciples of Boltax with a entry announcing an AllSpark Almanac II signing in Burbank, California within the US.

"So, it's that time of year again! The AllSpark Almanac II is due out in stores in just under two weeks. To celebrate, we're doing another signing in Burbank, at the Emerald Knights comic & game shop.  In addition to Bill and myself, Marty Isenberg and Derrick Wyatt have kindly agreed to be on hand to sign the AAII, the AAI, The Arrival, toys, DVDs or whatever other Animated swag you care to bring.  Last year, Derrick, Bill and I had a blast.  There were sketches to be had, photos to be taken and much rejoicing. I'm hoping that this year is even better.

Join us Saturday, July 3rd at 1:00 PM at 4116 W Burbank Blvd, Burbank, CA, 91505.  Call (818) 588-3631 if you'd like to RSVP and make sure they'll have a copy of the AAII for you.

STRATOSPHERE ­ head in the clouds, that's Stratosphere all over. He's in his element at high altitude but unversed in ground combat. So, when his wings are clipped on a routine reconnaissance mission in the Cascades, Stratosphere must learn the hard way, from scratch if he's to survive and report back. Especially as he's learned of a Decepticon operation to
rebuild/reactivate Devastator!
